When a Gundam and a hornet love each other very much, you get this
HELLO! We are back!
In today’s 161st edition of Let’s Talk Gunpla segment, we will finally be taking a look at one particular P-Bandai release announcement that was made recently. The P-Bandai kit that we are talking about today is one of gunpla release that as well just so happens to be one of the revealed kits that we talked about a few weeks back!
So without further ado, let us get into it, shall we?
RE100 ZMT-S12G Shokew (REBORN100)
Release Date: 2020/05
Estimated price: JPY 4,180* (MYR RM 153.89* / USD $ 37.95* / EUR € 34.17*)
*The price is subject to change, depending on the situation
This P-Bandai kit is the one that we kind been looking forward to seeing more of ever since we talked about the reveal a few weeks back. It is nice to actually be able to learn more of what we are going to be getting here with this RE100 Shokew release.
Admittedly we here as well do think that the announcement came at the right time too! Because it was actually announced at the same time together with all the other awesome Retail releases. Even with that said, we do admit that we are still quite upset that we are seeing this as a P-Bandai release.
However, we do admit that this particular RE100 kit release might pave a good path for us to possibly getting the Rig Shokew to be released as a retail release? Maybe?
Anyways, after taking a much closer look at the RE100 Shokew’s promotional materials, it does look like the RE100 Shokew does have quite a few very interesting features that we here do like. Like for an instance, we like the fact the RE100 Shokew comes with two separate main camera lenses that you can use to create the two different ‘eye’ modes of the Shokew. We are as well a HUGE fan of how the RE100 Shokew’s shoulder Beam cannons work here. Although we are quite curious about how will the shoulder cannon work in real life? Will it hamper the movement of the arm unit? I guess we will know more about this as soon as we get our hands on the RE100 Shokew.
However, it is not to say that the shoulder armor and main camera lenses of the RE100 Shokew are the main driving force of our interest in the kit. Because admittedly we here as well is a fan of how the RE100 Shokew looked. Yes admittedly, even though it does have a look that might not be for everyone, but we here do find the weird look of the Shokew to be quite…attractive. Plus it is nice to get something weird for a change.
Yes, it is quite clear that we are quite interested in the kit. However, we know for a fact that getting this kit is going to be quite an endeavor for all of us here, this year.
With that concludes today’s 161st edition of our Let’s Talk Gunpla segment! What do you think of this P-Bandai Gunpla release announcement? Are you looking forward to this one P-Bandai Gunpla release? We are aware of the last-minute entry to P-Bandai that was made, unfortunately we really didn’t have the time to redo the post….so we shall move that forward to next week.
But truth to be told? I do like the fact that we can dedicate the whole one day post just for the RE100 Shokew, because we do hope that we would see Bandai dedicate more resources in giving us not just MORE the protagonist MS from the V Gundam series, but as well giving us MORE Antagonist’s side MS from the V Gundam series.
Anyways, we will be back again with more Let’s Talk Gunpla segment next week at the same day, next Wednesday and Friday! Kimi as well will be back again this Monday with a new Unboxing or a Review or a WIP blog post. So do look forward to that!
